Thursday, March 12, 2015

Outreach by the bikers’ group climaxed with their Legislative Day on Wednesday, March 4. Items on ABATE’s 2015 agenda center support for bills that will make biking safer across Illinois, and encourage group biking events. Key bills include HB 3538 (Wheeler) to encourage and further authorize community groups to operate locally licensed, supervised poker run fundraisers, and HB 3944 (Bennett) to authorize new forms of safety lighting on motorcycles operating at night.
